With the two wins today, Baylor improves to 5-1 on the year and remains undefeated at home with a record of 5-0.

"I thought the second match was our best match of the year," said head coach Matt Knoll. "Just in terms of our energy, our focus level, and our execution were way better than they have been. I am really optimistic about what is coming up next for this team."

Knoll was able to switch up his lineup including doubles teams in the second match, but the Bears posted the third and fourth shutouts of the season.

Match No. 1 vs. UT Pan-American

In the first match, the Bears claimed the doubles point with wins on court 3 and court 1 by scores of 8-3 and 8-1.

The Bears kept the momentum rolling as singles action got underway. Baylor's Patrick Pradella made quick work of UTPA's Chetan Panditi winning by a score of 6-0, 6-1 in the No. 2 spot.

Diego Galeano was soon to follow with a win on court 5 by a score of 6-3, 6-0. Roberto Maytin then posted a 6-2, 6-2 win on court 4. Tony Lupieri clinched the Baylor win with a victory at the No. 1 spot with a 6-0, 6-2 win over Thomas Panoulas, before Robert Verzaal picked up a 6-4, 6-1 victory in the No. 6 spot.
No. 56 Marko Krickovic was the last Bear to finish on court 3 with a win over Ricardo Hopker by a score of 6-2, 6-3.

The Bears win over UTPA moves the overall series record to 13-10 and the second straight 7-0 victory for the Bears vs. the Broncs.
With the loss, UTPA falls to 1-5 on the season.

The Bears next match will be on the road against North Florida on Feb. 21 before taking on No. 11 Florida in Gainesville, Fla. The Bears will return home on March 2 to host their second double header of the season, which will feature Laredo Community College and Abilene Christian.

"We don't have a signature win yet, but we have a good opportunity when we go down to Gainesville next weekend," Knoll said. "We are way more prepared then we were the last time we played a team of that caliber, so we are excited and we will go down there and see what happens."
